Louis Wain Fact #20:
Sometimes, Wain held competitions through his annual, in which children from all over England were invited to submit to him essays about felines. A boy and a girl were each chosen as a winner and had their works published with permission. The prize? £5. It may not seem like much, but that is the equivalent to about £786 in 2023.
